' p..Please Master you have to believe me i never harmed anyone you know i wouldn't and don't leave me here its scary i have never spent a night away from home please let me go home il will scrub the Cathedral clean tomorrow i will do all the jobs you don't like but get me out of here its so scary and i cant lie down on that bed even on my side their are no pillows but let me go home i promise i will be very good and i will make you proud of me and happy ' Quasi said now falling to his knees and pleading with Frollo and even a couple of the guards felt bad for him as they knew Frollo could easily get him off but he ignored the poor boys begging and crying
' Look sir I'm just a guard and i really don't tell anyone on how to do their job but maybe it be better to let that poor creature go he's terrified and don't think he did anything wrong the man said looking at a sobbing Quasi who still remained on his knees begging for mercy
'No he needs to learn even if he did not do it he still disobeyed me and when he dose that he knows he is due a punishment I will not stand for his teenage rebellion he has changed and it is not a good change so perhaps a night in the Cells and a day on the pillory will bring him to heel "Frollo said in a cruel tone shocking poor Quasi who cried harder chocking on large tears that ran down his cheeks soaking his bangs that fell onto his face
' M..Master no please don't leave me and not the pillory it is horrible up their i beg of you Master please come back Master I'm so so sorry " Yelled Quasi as Frollo left the room and turning his back on Quasi who burst i to tears shocked that Frollo could treat him this way
' That was a bit harsh back their abandoning the poor kid ' The Guard said who took Quasi's side as he felt sorry for the sobbing boy
' He will be fine i want him to taste fear and pain this will be a lesson to him he has had life way too easy i gave that boy everything a home warm clothes good food also i taught him to read and write raised him as my own and he dose this to me and he has displayed me a lot including 5 times 4 so just now i am washing my hands off him and i will the law deal with him i am done for today so i shall see him in the morning ' Frollo said as he left the place to go home
Surly your not gonna just leave him their he's terrified and i don't think he's ever been in Jail before 'The guard said
' No he he has not which is the problem this should have happened sooner some time in jail and on the pillory will hopefully this will change him for the better and anyway what will they do to him knowing the old stupid judge will put him in the stocks or on the pillory for a few hours to humiliate him and he will be back home in his bell tower by tomorrow hopefully a changed boy and not a law into himself 'Frollo said
' True and the worst he could get is hung or locked up or a severe flogging or branding and no doubt he will get the humiliation haircut as everyone who goes to the Pillory is shorn of their hair ' The Guard said
' Good he could do with a decent haircut his hair is an unholy mess and the colour of the devil ' frollo said making the other man sigh
"But would really subject Quasimodo to the humiliation and shame of and maybe pain of the pillory you could discipline him yourself as you have done in the past and he is simple of mind and i really would not recommend it as Quasimodo is not like other people i sometimes i feel ..well i feel he is retarded and will not know what is going on and if he is dragged up onto that pillory his hair hacked off to the scalp and striped half naked with a wild crowd staring him and at his bare deformed back and jeering at him and no doubt throwing stuff well it might push Quasimodo over the edge you don't know what kind of effect it will have on him bad enough for a normal person but for him well God knows i really don't think you should punish him in privet ' The Guard said
' Listen you silence that bell ringer belongs to me and i will punish him an way i want to so if you want to keep your job and don't end up on the pillory yourself i suggest you stay out of my business I will deal with Quasimodo not you is that clear ' Frollo said scaring the young guard as he did not want to loose his job or end up on the dreaded pillory
The Guard stood in the snow and watched Frollo head back inside the Cathedral before sighing and walking on as he knew he'd be fighting a loosing battle
' Aww Frollo your back where is Quasimodo did he go straight up to his tower ..? Asked the Archdeacon smiling thinking that Quasi had returned too
'No he is still in custody at the palace of justice he will stay their overnight and is up before the judge tomorrow for his trial and way things are going he will be sent to the pillory for the day to receive what punishments he is due he might be kept out overnight as that has been known but it is down to the judge it will be a very interesting in trial that is for sure so i have to be over their early tomorrow morning as Quasimodo's trial is first and after he is sentenced he will be brought outside the Cathedral to the pillory in a cart i shall follow the procession as their is always one at these events on horseback and once his punishment is over he can find his own way back inside as i do not want anything to do with him i shall deal with him in a few days
' Dear lord in heaven you are allowing this pitiful child to go to the cruel pillory oh Claud how could you i thought you loved that boy And your going to put him through these dreadful events that may scar him for life how could you i am lost for words and all i can do is pray for Quasimodo for the lord to give him strength to get through tomorrow as he will need it i shall light a candle for him ' The archdeacon said heading down to the large alter and staring at a large statue of Jesus with his hands outstretched in a warm way as if he was welcoming people and kneeling down the Archdeacon began to pray for Quasi
' Dear Lord i know you can hear me and at times i am not perfect even though i so try to be but i need to ask a favour of you Lord not for myself but a dear good friend young Quasimodo i know he can be a handful at times but he means no harm and now he is wrongly accused of such horrific crimes and heaven knows what dreadful punishments await him and will he recover fully from them and be the same sweet boy please Lord look after Quasimodo tomorrow stay by his side and comfort him in his time of need he is one of your flock a lamb that has gone a little stray and all he needs is your love and a boost of energy and courage to get through tomorrow and later show him your love and give him comfort i will help him best i can but if you can Lord do not have him punished at all let Claud change his mind and bring Quasimodo home unharmed ' The Archdeacon said before standing up again and leaving as Frollo watched him and smirked he had no intentions of getting Quasi freed he wanted the poor boy to suffer then later he would humiliate poor Quasi more by reminding him of it every day in fact Frollo was looking forward to seeing Quasi suffer and in pain so the next day could not come fast enough
Thats that chappy done will anyone save poor Quasi in time things are going from bad to worse for poor Quasi
